From Quiet Attendee to Confident Speaker: A Practical Guide for Growing Your Community Voice

Many people sit in conference audiences wondering if they could ever be the one on stage. Unsure where to begin, what they’d talk about, or whether they have anything worth sharing. This adaptable workshop is your starting point.

Delivered by The Mentoring Hub’s New Speaker Academy program leads and shaped by real community experience, it offers a clear, honest path from silent participant to active contributor and, eventually, confident speaker.

Together, we’ll break the journey into simple, achievable steps: gaining confidence as an attendee, helping for the first time, sharing your knowledge, and giving back with intention.

You’ll learn how to craft engaging content, deliver it with authenticity, avoid burnout, ask for help without hesitation, and recognise the value you bring long before you ever step into the spotlight.

Led by experienced community speakers and supported by guest contributors, this workshop blends practical tools with real stories, doubts, and breakthroughs.

You’ll leave with clarity, momentum, and one concrete action you can take immediately, even if you still feel like that quiet person in the second row.

This is an all-day workshop led by MVPs, International Speakers and members who have been through The Mentoring Hub's 'New Speaker Academy' program.
